We stayed here because we are doing a tour of scandanavia, and this hotel seemed like a good 5 star (or at least 4 star) choice. Having stayed at only 4 or 5 star hotels around the world, I was generally disappointed with the services. While the front desk and concierge were very helpful, when we arrived from the airport... more

We stayed at this hotel for five nights. As said before, the hotel looks very classy and elegant and it is located smack in the middle of the city, which is very convenient. We also agree with earlier reviewers that the breakfast was very good. Lots of choices and the Grand Cafe is a wonderful setting. When we checked in,... more

My wife, two friends, and I selected the Grand Hotel for the first two nights of a 18-day land trip and cruise vacation. While expensive, it was a great choice for us. Why? (1) Quality & Service, (2) Location, and (3) a GRAND Breakfast! While an older hotel, our rooms were quite nice, with comfortable beds and efficient bathrooms. Service... more

The front desk was very helpful and friendly, the breakfast buffets were excellent, and the dinner was delicious.

My room was massive with all the 5* accessories you would expect. I had the continental breakfast in the room each of the three morning I was there and it was... more

The hotel is centrally located, room was spacious, excellent breakfast buffet. more

I arrived with trepidation given the reveiws; my room is sparkling clean, quiet, large and homey with a well appointed bathroom... everything works; there is not a whiff of smoking, I have a balcony,So what is it, people? I"m here for a number of nights, so let's see what unfolds... but really, you reviewers had me worried. Not any more.... more

First the good news: Great location in central Oslo, with easy access from the efficient public transport system. Grand Cafe and tables outside is a 'place to be seen' if you desire that sort of thing! Issues (generally compare with previous reviewers): Service is casual to indifferent. Had a recently refurbished Superior room which was fine but no more than... more
